Does this also mean, then, that Presbyterian Church can be held responsible for wrongdoing by ministers?

Lutheran Church..............repeat the question

Baptist Church................repat the question

Etc.

If there is a pattern of allowing child rapists to continue in the ministry, like the Roman Catholic Church did, yes.

Individuals are responsible for what they do. How can a whole church be held responsible for committing a reprehensible act which the church in fact condemns? If a Presbyterian minister molests a child, then the minister is at fault, not his sect.
